Easiest solution is:

Winamp and the cdg plugin. Add pacemaker plugin if you need to change key.

You can sing. Everyone can sing -- the limitation is not in the vocal perform (to an EXTENT) but in the equipment and how well the person is running that equipment. Case in point, Ashlee Simpson is a great STUDIO performer. She's proven, TWICE now that she can't sing in public as a live performer. DigiTech makes a great product that I use that allows me not only to add reverb, which helps, but adjust the key, voice double (a common trick in studio recording to strengthen the voice) or even layer that double (or triple) in a harmonizing key higher or lower.

A lot for a new person with a laptop to absorb. But my point is you probably sing better than you think, and even if you sing "bad" enough to scare your cat, there are some great Karaoke hosts with some great equipment out there that could make you sound...

...well as good as Ashlee Simpson in a recording session (not at the Orange Bowl).

Oh I know my singing is terrible but when it comes to Karaoke, I see it all in fun.

I actually wasn't into Karaoke in the past as it was seen as something the girls got together to do while the guys went elsewhere but over the past couple of months (and the right friends) it has been a blast, even if I am the Karaoke wallflower.

Mind you, after getting into it, a couple of beer to loosen up (not to the point of being a drinken idiot) I have actually hit the stage.

Disclaimer: Do not expect me to be in any Idol shows anytime soon!!!
